Yes, but it doesn't have a 1/4" input. I expect you'll need a simple
pre-amp or mixer circuit to balance impedances. Is your bass active
or passive?
In a way, using a Linux box just for bass effects is overkill. You
might want to consider including recording capabilities into your
design.

Sounds good - speaking as one bass player to another, would you
consider releasing your plugins?

There was some discussion on this list recently about using MIDI foot
controllers, I believe.
