I know the parisian gyspsy jazz world quite well and I know a foreign player thats speaks good french and plays correctly with a manouche guitar. Your man!
His nickname on the forum is "bullyspud" you can contact him via the forum.

There are also those 2 norwegian players that are currently staying in Paris but they are professional musicians.

If you have other questions I will be happy to answer them you can contact me via MP.

Cheers,

@mitch: That's great news thanks. I am contacting him now!
@zboubette : I go to Paris frequently and there are some people from production team however it's not easy arrange them from Valenciennes because they don't know how this things works.
+We are still looking for persons that can help us at production. Also do not hesitate to participate directly: if you want to join production team just send me a mail!
I will keep you guys updated.
