Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.
Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Add shallot and bell pepper.
Cook until softened, 3 or 4 minutes; stir in garlic.
Add white wine and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Stir in canned clams, 1/2 of the reserved clam juice, and chicken broth.
Arrange fresh clams on the sauce.
Bring to a low simmer; reduce heat to low.
Cover and cook until clam shells open, 5 or 6 minutes.
Discard clams that do not open.
Stir in basil pesto and shrimp.
Heat through until shrimp are bright pink and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and chopped basil.
