I think that is exactly what happened. It is a trem bucker. I will rewrap and widen the hole a little.

I have also had that happen in pickguards with the humbucker hole not being wide enough with Trembuckers that have the winds coming closer to the edge of the bobbin. The tape starts to get pulled down as one adjusts the humbucker up. I have sanded the edges of pickguard humbucker routes to keep this from happening.

Thanks. I found some 3m cloth electrical tape on the Home Depot site. I’ll pick up some tomorrow. I’ll give it a shot.

Sometimes, especially in humid environments, this happens. It won't hurt anything. If it does bother you, you can buy cloth pickup tape and re-wrap it. Don't use electrical tape, as it gets gummy over time.

Irrelevant (unless you manage to pickscratch through the windings by accident)
You could always put on more/new tape if it bothers you
